Al Cantara - Luci Luci | DOC Etna Bianco Carricante
White wine | Italy, SICILIA | 2021
The wine has a vibrant straw-yellow color, with good texture that anticipates its
freshness. On the nose, it expresses itself with an elegant aromatic bouquet, where delicate notes of white flowers and fresh fruit, particularly yellow apple and tropical fruits such as pineapple and mango, stand out. This white wine, from the Terre Siciliane and made from Carricante grapes, is characterized by
a harmonious delicacy. Luci Luci is enriched by 49 mentions of earthy notes that reveal a pleasant minerality, conveying the essence of its volcanic terroir. Tasting notes are amplified by a lively acidity that lends balance and freshness to the palate, making it a surprisingly versatile wine. The combination of floral, fruity and mineral aromas offers a complex and inviting sensory experience.

About Al-Cantara
The Al-Cantara winery was established in 2005 with the vision of bringing artisanal wines imbued with poetry to the market. The culmination of two decades of success came in 2023 with the prestigious award of "Winery of the Year - Gran Vinitaly 2023." This recognition speaks to the meticulous work in the vineyards and cellars. While wine production is undoubtedly a team effort, the influence of Salvatore Rizzuto, the oenologist, cannot be overstated.
Beyond their excellent quality, Al-Cantara wines immediately catch the eye with their sophisticated and colorful labels. Young Sicilian artists are given the opportunity to unleash their creativity, producing unique designs. Connoisseurs of Italian poetry will notice that the wines are named after works by Sicilian poets.
The name "Al-Cantara" is derived from a meandering river that finds its way to the sea along the slopes of Mount Etna.
